Biography
Bradley Barron Renfro started working as an actor at a young age of 12. With no experience in acting and no formal education in performing arts, he was asked to portray the lead role as Mark Sway in the Joel Schumacher's film "The Client".
Brad or Pagey as he is fondly called was born on July 25, 1982, at Knoxville, Tennessee, USA. He was an only child but was never raised by his parents but by his grandmother.
He is a guitar enthusiast and loves to play sort of musical instruments. He is inspired by Zeppelin and Page's guitar skills.
Like many growing kids who have been separated from their parents, Pagey has had personal problems in alcohol and drugs. Having been arrested in May 2001 and January 2002 for underage drinking and public intoxication and driving without a license. He was also arrested on counts of grand theft charges for trying to steal a yacht. In 1998, he was also arrested in his hometown for allegedly possessing marijuana and cocaine. His latest drug related problem was involving Renfro in an attempt to purchase heroin on December 2005. Upon pleading guilty, he was required to undergo drug rehabilitation.
Prior to all these personal issues, Brad has showed great interest in the film when Mali Finn spotted him and was immediately thought to be the lead cast in the film "The Client" which became a monstrous hit in 1994. He was also a part of numerous critically acclaimed films like Ghost World as Josh and in Bully portraying the character of Marty Puccio and in the 2005 film "The Jacket" where he played the role of The Stranger. Born talented, he was awarded the Hollywood Reporter's Young Star award in 1995.
Prior his drug confinement, he was able to finish a film entitled "10th and Wolf" where he played the role of Vincent. This film has also earned good reviews.
No doubt, despite his bad boy reputation, Brad became one of Hollywood's most sought after young actors joining the ranks of Brad Pitt, Susan Sarandon and other big stars.
